Bell Ringer

  • Think about service projects that you might do for your reflection. Maybe you would like to get together with a group of peers to buy gifts for a child on an Angel Tree. We have groups nearby such as Help and Hope, the Humane Society, John 3:16, and the Food Bank that you might volunteer for. Maybe you could tutor or work with one of the clubs organizing food or toy drives.
  • Talk with your small group about ideas you have for this project.
  • List 3 possible service projects that you would be willing to do.
  • Be ready to discuss these with the class.
